Keeo Kindergarten Relief

Hello Keeo!

My name is Mel. I am one of the original founders of Keeo.

I am deeply passionate about working with children and developing trusted relationships with staff and early childhood services. I am committed to building genuine relationships based on integrity, respect, collaboration, and a shared passion for delivering excellence.

I am a VIT registered early childhood teacher, currently practicing at a sessional kindergarten in Melbourne. My teaching experience has been diverse and fulfilling, having taught at Gowrie Victoria and in sessional kindergartens for over 15 years, in both permanent and relief roles.

I view our Keeo staff as collaborators in our goal to provide the best quality early childhood education and care, and I am proud of each Keeo staff member for the individual skills and experience that they bring.

A dynamic management team joins me in ensuring Keeo provides the highest quality and most efficient service, leading to the best outcomes for our casual staff and early childhood services.

Keeo Leadership Team

We are parents, educators and business people, we're the driving force behind Keeo. Our goal is to help enable Keeo to become the agency of choice for both staff and Early Childhood Services around Victoria. We have lofty goals and big ambitions as well as some amazing ideas on how to achieve them!

"Keeo are reliable, with excellent quality of Teachers and Educators. We have been using Keeo for our relief staff needs and they have consistently provided high-quality EC Teachers and Educators.

What sets Keeo apart from other agencies we've worked with is the efficient booking system, excellent communication and follow up. Mel is proactive in checking in with us to ensure the relief staff are meeting our needs and expectations. Keeo is a very reliable agency that we trust for our staffing needs.

Highly recommend Keeo!"

"We have been lucky enough to be introduced to Mel and her amazing team in 2023 when we were finding it difficult to fill relief vacancies with highly capable relief educators.

Since joining up with Keeo we have had the most amazing staff come through to support our team here at Surrey Hills preschool and have not had one person we could not recommend.

We have had a high need for agency staff and Mel and her team have been able to fill the positions every time. Their booking system is easy and very prompt especially when it's those 5:30am sick calls!"

- Surrey Hills Preschool

"Our kindergarten has found Keeo's booking process very easy to follow.

We know that Keeo have a rigorous selection process and only employ the best Teachers and Educators. As a result, the staff that they provide have been very professional and knowledgeable.

They follow up on customer satisfaction and as a community run kindergarten, we like to support community run small businesses."
